Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, a Republican from Florida, took to social media to provide updates on the ongoing discussions regarding the spending bill at the U.S. Capitol. Luna stated that there is currently no plan to cut a deal with Democrats in order to pass the bill after two days of chaos on Capitol Hill.
In a post made early Friday morning, Luna mentioned that discussions are still in progress and a voting session is scheduled for around 10 a.m. on Friday. She assured her followers that lawmakers are committed to getting the bill passed, emphasizing that they are sticking to a plan that includes some cuts as suggested by former President Trump.
Despite the challenges, Luna expressed optimism on Thursday evening that a government shutdown could be avoided. However, she highlighted the urgency of reaching a decision before the deadline of 11:59 p.m. on Friday to prevent any disruptions.
As the negotiations continue, lawmakers are working diligently to find common ground and ensure that the spending bill is approved in a timely manner. Luna's updates provide insight into the ongoing efforts to address the budgetary issues and reach a consensus among the members of Congress.
